A Moment in Destiny

"Stop talking nonsense. I don't believe it at all! Are you kidding? Of course I know what kind of person you are, so it’s impossible that you would kill somebody. Even if you’ve killed someone, I'll clean up the mess for you.” Rae said in a serious tone. Then she turned her face to Ophelia who kept her head down. She saw that Ophelia was puzzled.

After Ophelia puzzled for several seconds, only then she looked up and looked at Rae.

Although the lights in the square were dim, Rae could see the expression on Ophelia’s face at a glance. Ophelia was staring at her. Ophelia looked shocked, she seemed like she could not believe what Rae said.

Rae was also afraid that Ophelia didn't believe what she said. She repeated it again in a very firm tone, "Ophelia, I know what kind of person you are, so I believe you! You won’t murder anyone! If you encounter a problem that is difficult to solve, you can tell me. If you really don't want to say it or if you have an unspeakable reason that you couldn’t say anything, remember that I'm here and I can listen to you at any time. Even if you just want to lean with me, I can be by your side!”

This time, Ophelia’s body shook. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she choked a little. Ophelia put her hand around Rae's neck and cried, “I knew...I knew you would believe me. You are my true friend. I was wrong. Because of Reuben, I distant myself a little from you, but I was wrong. Now I know I'm wrong. You believed me so much, but I was so petty. I really shouldn’t be like that!”

Rae nodded and repeated her words, “Even if everyone in this world does not believe you, I will still believe you. We are friends, we are soulmates, we are the closest in the world. As long as you need me, I'll be here!”

In Rae's heart, she had really regarded Ophelia as her own family. Perhaps it was because she had too few family members, or because she was deeply dependent on family and friendship. She really cherished this friendship after she experienced five years of loneliness.

Ophelia hugged Rae and cried for a long time. Then she said, “I may have encountered huge trouble. It's related to human life. You may have heard about it. It's about the murder of the siblings, Stanley and Karina!"

Seeing Ophelia took the initiative to talk about this, Rae nodded and replied bluntly, "Yes, I know. We talked about this at our meeting. Stanley met you before he died, Karina also met you before she died. You met them separately the day before they died!”

"Would you believe me if I said I was innocent?" Ophelia looked at Rae, her eyes looked frustrated and depressed, “I don't even believe that I am innocent myself. How can others believe me?"

"But I believe you!" Rae hurriedly said with a firm look, "As I said just now, you must have something that you couldn’t confess? Or it must be that you have an unspeakable reason? I’m sure you were framed, I know. You've always been a smart person. I'm not worried about any reason that can make you kill people because you won't do that at all. But what I'm worried about now is, have you been threatened or framed? No! It’s not possible that you were threatened. You should have been framed. Do you know anyone hiding behind the scenes and who would harm you? Who is that person?”

Ophelia let go of Rae and sat down in her seat. She picked up a can of beer and took a big sip, but she was not drunk.

Then she began to say slowly, "I was indeed framed, but I don't know who is behind the scenes! This is the scariest part!”

"What do you mean?" Rae was a little surprised, "You don't know who framed you, then how do you know that you were framed?"

"When I met them, they both came to see me at a different time. The day before Karina died, I gave her a glass of beer. I didn’t tell the police that Karina had called me once using the phone at workpalce. Karina told me she had something she wanted to tell me!”

Rae frowned, "What did she say to you?"
